The San Francisco office maximizes the use of natural light, reducing the need for energy-powered artificial lighting.
Water is not an endless resource. Yet despite hearing constantly about its scarcity in the world, water seems to be plentiful in our daily lives. Most of us hardly notice as water nurtures our landscapes, cleans the toilets, and makes the coffee. Bloomberg says that over the ear, they will execute a plan to reduce water consumption by 15%. They are also exploring a system that redirects rain water for use throughout their facilities. San Francisco and their future LEED certified buildings will each reduce water use by 40%.
LEED is Leadership in Energy and Environ mental Design, which is an internationally recognized certification system for green buildings with standards determine by the U.S. Green Building Council.
